When I went to San Fran, I had packed only fall clothing (ie. sweaters, cardigans, scarves) anticipating that it would be somewhat chilly or even rainy because each time I've gone, it's been like that! But the moment we stepped off the plane, it was sun..sun..sun!! It was pretty warm and not a cloud in sight! And flying in from Seattle, I obviously was overdressed and didn't pack the right clothing. Gah.. -_-

So since I've been back at home, hardly any rain in sight (knock on wood) but it's been freezing cold! What a weather change! Now it's all about bundling up and putting on more layers as temperature slowly drops. My absolute favorite accessories to keep warm with are scarves! I buy them in all colors and prints and even buy ones specifically for the lighter seasons. Since I love scarves so much, I even learned how to crochet them too! I felt that it was a great way to save some money (buy yarn when it's on a cheap sale) plus it's a fun side hobby. Sometimes I feel like an old lady with my crochet needle watching t.v.. hahaha... j/k j/k! ;) I'm definitely not any pro at it but it comes out decent enough for me to wear (like in this outfit) and I've even given some away as lovely gifts! In this outfit, I bundled up with my cropped peacoat and wrapped my scarf in a double wrap. I also wore my tall suede boots that reminds me of pirate boots every time I wear them! haha..

How do you feel about crocheted scarves?

Onto the giveaway announcement....

I wanted to graciously thank everyone for entering into my giveaway for the Urban Decay Naked 1 Palette. It was fun reading each and every comment on what you cannot live without! I like getting to know you guys that way!

Congrats to the winner! I check her blog often too lolIt's getting freezing isnt it? I only own one knit scarf but its because I don't know how to tie it around my neck without it looking like a boa constricter on my neck lol

Ohh, I love hand-knitted scarves, I wish I knew how!I"m really, really excited to be visiting Seattle for Thanksgiving, but I really hate the rain.. so I'm hoping that it won't rain which my boyfriend (originally from Seattle) is disagreeing with... So we'll see, I've been keeping an eye out for the weather there because I want to pack cute clothes without having to worry about getting wet and gross haha..

Oh it's finally cold enough there for you to bundle up! I used to crochet a lot too, it's really easy (with the simple designs). You should post pictures of any scarves or crochet projects you make! And congrats to Allison!

That's so awesome that you crotchet! I tried to teach myself how to knit thinking I would be able to make everyone cute scarfs for Christmas gifts last year but I just didn't have the patience to keep up with it.

You look cozy! We have snow today and even though its not sticking its cold! Im so glad im home today... :DWondering if you would like to follow each other? :)Please let me know.yuliconversations.blogspot.com
